The Midwifery Workforce: ACNM 2012 and AMCB 2013 Core Data

Abstract

The new collaboration among HRSA, ACNM, and AMCB, represented as the Midwifery MasterFile, provides the opportunity to clearly profile CNMs/CMs, distinct from advanced practice registered nurses, in government reports about the health care workforce. This information is central to identifying and marketing the role and contribution of CNMs/CMs in the provision of primary and reproductive health care services.
